Wings of Tragedy

"Hey Molly where are you going?" Jordan asked as Molly raced down the stairs.

"Why should I tell you?" Molly asked with a smile.

Unfortunately before Jordan could say anything Molly had ran out of the hanger and out of sight.

"What's with that girl?" Jordan asked himself as he scratched his head.

It was a clear day as Molly ran along the dirt path. She had no real reason for being happy but all the same she felt content. While she ran she looked up at the sky. Everything seemed calm and peaceful. Suddenly Molly fell backward…she had been looking up at the sky and forgot to look where she was going.

"Ouch, I'm sorry I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." Molly said rubbing her head.

"Neither was I!"

Molly looked up to see a girl around her age. Long brown hair and slightly tan skin the girl seemed almost normal. It wasn't until they both stood up Molly realized like everyone else on this planet the girl was an alien.

The girl had what looked to be feathery antenna and brown wings that looked almost as though they were a cape.

"Sorry, I sometimes forget to look where I'm going!" The girl said with a cheery smile.

Molly smiled in return, "I guess we both forgot to look where we were going."

They both started laughing at the strange coincident. It wasn't until later Molly learned the girl, who's name was Jazmere , had come from a planet known as Mirl. The people from this planet resembled moth like creatures.

"Come on try it!" Jazmere said.

"I don't know if I can…" Molly said as she looked at the strange food Jazmere had given her.

Molly wouldn't have been so hesitant if it weren't for the fact the strange food on the skewer was still moving!

"Tell you what, you try it and I'll try this soda thing."

Recently Molly had found the soda in the hanger. Apparently Jordan had snuck it aboard before he and the others were rushed into space.

"Ok on three!" Jazmere said.

"One.."

"Two…"

"THREE!"

Both of them tried each others different food but at almost the same time they spit it out.

"Eww eww eww!" Molly cried, "It was moving in my mouth!"

"You think that was bad this stuff is all fizzy!" Jazmere said sticking out her tongue.

All at once they both burst out laughing. For the first time Molly had someone she could talk to.

"Hey Molly!"

Molly and Jazmere both looked up. Jordan was heading towards them.

"Hey Molly Don Wei wants us back at the hanger."

"What? Why?

"He says he wants to make sure the Arrow is working ok."

Jazmere looked up at Jordan.

"What?" Jordan asked noticing Jazmere was staring at him.

"…Your funny looking."

Jordan was unable to reply…Molly suddenly starting laughing so much she fell backwards off the bench she and Jazmere were sitting on.

"Hey Molly he's not your boyfriend is he?" Jazmere asked pointing to Jordan.

At the same time Jordan and Molly shouted, "NO!"

"Oh."

Jordan and Molly's faces were both red. Jazmere waved goodbye as Molly and Jordan headed down the path back to the Earth teams hanger.
